As avid of a knife fan as I am, I still feel like I need to justify the purpose and intent of each one I own. Fixed blade knives have a wide range of uses. From skinning a deer, filleting a fish or self-defense; these primitive weapons still find a special place in our heart, […]
If you’re like one of the many people who enjoy a great cup of coffee regardless of where you are, then look no further than the Steel Toe french press mug from Planetary Design. This is an absolutely awesome mug that every coffee lover should have. The 20oz mug is durably crafted, featuring a double […]
When you’re out in the woods, it seems the one thing you never have quite enough of is light. Â Either it’s not strong enough, focused enough or just not where you need it. Â Princeton Tec is constantly working to make the best, brightest and lightest light you’ll find, so you won’t ever be stuck in […]
I’ve had the ESEE 4 for a few weeks now, and it’s been a near constant companion on my adventures. It’s too large for everyday carry, but perfect for every adventure carry. I’ve taken fishing in the Gulf of Mexico and exposed it to salt water, and barely cleaned it and not a touch of […]
One of the more interesting freebies at SHOT Show 2018 was the Phone Skope cases and adapters. Prospective firearms writers received an email promising a free Phone Skope with their name on it if they filled out an RSVP form. I filled mine out because I like free stuff, even though I don’t digiscope often. […]

The industry has grown so drastically in the past few years, and […]
Whether spending time at the range or on an actual bow or gun hunt, I tried for as long as I could to use my smartphone to record video footage. Even though using a smartphone was awkward and often not very practical, I couldn’t justify paying for a GoPro along with the required mounts. When […]
Savage Arms has reinvented itself over the last decade. From a traditional bolt-gun company to a do-it-all modern rifle manufacturer, the transformation has been impressive. While not a brand-new gun, I was able to get my hands on one of Savage’s newer rifles, the MSR-10 Hunter chambered in .308 Win. Also available in 6.5 Creedmoor […]
I’ve shot a lot of rounds in my life.  I was a pretty heavy volume shooter in my teens, chewing through case after case of .223, 7.63×39 and 12ga as well as various handgun calibers.  After I joined the military my volume went up drastically easily pushing tens of thousands of rounds downrange annually.  I was well […]
What used to cost several thousand dollars for a custom rifle can now be purchased for around a grand. And it’s a shooter with sub minute-of-angle standards beyond the coveted 1000 meter mark right out of the box.
